[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] basher52:
In god old times of LeeDroid 1.7 (my first customrom on Desire), there was a fix called GPU+. As i remember, it was a fixed driver which gave us 5% more 2D performance, while 3D increases about 30%.

Since 2.3 i have never seem this fix here anymore, but games need it today more then ever (like Contract Killer, even lagging while running at 1152MHz..)

But there are two other things i miss:

1) Highperformance OC - there where kernels with 1,2GHz enabled, yesterday i stoped flashing a rom because there were only 1050MHz enabled. Is there a nother way to "unlock" the possility of open end OC?

2) Camera OC - When Froyo brought us 720p, i think Leedroid Roms include a fix named Camera Overclock, increasing the FPS on HD video capture. In 2.3.3 ROMs, 720p is still laggy, but where is Camera OC gone?

I hope you can give me the answers i want, or even some solutions.

Greets, basher52
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Luk001:
HTC did not release the kernel sources for the 2.6.35 GB sense kernel, so there is no possibility to create a kernel with these tweaks yet.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eXDee:
Are these kind of things possible on AOSP?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] basher52:
Thanx for your answers, i thought the sources opend with the upcoming new Kernels.

Good to know, that its just a couple of time till i got my features again ;)

[HTC Desire S] vankox:
Hey guys,

Anyone else getting an issue where the audible selection tone sometimes will not make a sound when phone is left idle for about 3 seconds? Usually it works fine, but like stated before if you leave it alone for a short period of time, and you make a selection, theres a tiny faint sound, almost muffled.

It's not a software issue as I've installed other stock roms to test it out so its definitely a unit issue. Problem is the guys at the store I bought it from refuse to acknowledge that this is a defect or just plainly plead ignorance to even consider taking it in for inspection.

Can anyone else relate or even have a solution? I'm probably going to end up selling it and buying another one since I got it for a prett-ay good price in the first place.

[HTC Desire S] TheReaperUK:
Mine does it to, it did it on stock and also does it now on Virtuous Unity, so it seems to be a phone bug not software, i'm really starting to dis-like the desire S and now wish i'd stuck with my old desire:(
[HTC Desire S] faraaz:
Got the same problem, maybe that HTC will fix it in a update.
[HTC Desire S] vankox:
Thanks guys.

It seems that this is a universal problem with Desire S's. Yet I couldn't find a mention of this anywhere on the interwebz. Then again, finding anything on the Desire S is hard enough (keep getting just Desire results). I managed to finally root and flash virtuous unity (cause I'm the ultimate Android noob) and the issue continues to persist. So yes, it's definitely NOT a software issue.

I just had a chance to play around with a friend's Desire S and his phone has the same issue...but to a lesser degree, so I'm wondering perhaps the severity varies among different phones.

Is there anyone else with the same issue?
[HTC Desire S] Phillmitchell:
I have found a way of getting the sound back by loading a game,then using the volume button turn on the sound to full then leave the game with audible sounds
[General Questions and Answers] tbd@immigrantsong.de:
Most of our phones and tabs offer an FM-Radio which uses the headset cable as the FM antenna.

I want to connect my tab with m home theatre system, using it as the central source for FM radio, as well as the music library.

Does anyone know if and how I could connect an external antenna to the tab. Using the headet is obviously not an option. Obviously one of the headset wires is being used as tha antenna, but which one and how could I hook it up with the antenna jack coming out of the wall??
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MeX_DK:
I have now had my Samsung Galaxy S2 for a few days and I already have a small list of things that is starting to annoy me >_<

1:

In the stock browser there is no settings for mobile or desktop so that you can actually choose to have the desktop feel rather then a crap mobile site

2:

When you download something, then the downloads under browser has no progress bar and only lists "In Progress". It might just be me but I actually like having a progress bar so I can see how far along each download is, and how fast the download is going at.

More to come later, but is there a solution to those 2 issues ?. Because going to about:debug with the browser does very little on the Samsung compared with other phones :(
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HellcatDroid:
for 1)

about:useragent if memory serves well, might be a bit different, it's somewhere posted in a thread here (IIRC there's also a thread to change it permanentely)

sorry, no idea for #2, I only download using a FTP client....
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dima613:
It is not phone related problem.

Try Dolphin Browser from Market it won't dissapoint you !
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MeX_DK:
I had the same issue on my past LG and tried Dolphin as a possible solution. 1: It didn't fix the issue. 2: And it causes other "issues" at least for making me go back to stock.

What really ticks me off is the need and requirement to actually go out and find other apps to make the phones works as they "should". Stock browser etc should be sufficient for at least a lot of users, but most of the manufacturers mess that bit up. HTC at least can have as stock browser that works like it is supposed to >_<
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] airuzzo:
i can suggest to use skyfire like default browser, so u can hit all the 2 problem here.

Have nice day :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MeX_DK:
Using skyfire is not really a solution, since I want to prefebly keep the stock browser.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prodygee:
Ermm, isn't download progress shown we you pull down the status bar?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MeX_DK:
Yes it is, but:

1: It only shows total progress of ALL files presently downloaded and also does not show the speed of which it is happening.

2: Clicking that progress bar basically shows you all the downloading files and shows "in Progress".

What I am looking for is individual progress bars, inside the browser. Ie so I can see the individual progress of each file and how fast its downloading when I am inside the browser.

As it is I have no issue with the overall progress bar in the notification bar,

my issue is when you are looking at the "downloads" inside the browser. The LGO2x shows individual progress bars and speeds. Whereas the SGS2 does not.

And I happen to prefer the LG way in that regard.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] b@tt@l:
A few minutes after connecting to 3G internet, my X5 feels like a hot oven. I can easily feel it when it's in my pocket. Have you experienced something like this?

(Edit: PS: OK, the "oven" part was a bit exaggerated :) But it can be easily felt if you put the phone in your pocket with its back facing towards your body.)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] weaponeer:
my x5 is not only net connecting is overheating but playing games.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] XphX:
I am not sure if the cpu can get that hot (feels like an oven). Use setCPU to check if the phone is always on max. frequency. If it is, the cpu is at 100%, that would heat up the phone. Maybe an app crashed or something... or you can use SystemPanel Lite to check the cpu load.

I do not think that any other part of the phone can even get hot if it is working properly.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] b@tt@l:
I haven't played any games seriously yet but the somewhat lower back of the phone starts to get hotter soon after connecting to mobile internet and surfing some pages. This has happened two days consecutively. And since It's with me for only that many days, I can't speak for more :) Maybe I'm going to test it again today.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] yavuzyilmaz28:
I have just signed up for 3g network and yes just as you said the lower back of the phone heats too much.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] hyperdude111:
Try SD Card

I've only had my U8800 for a day but was surprised when it reached 47C while on standbuy. The head was coming from the bottom left, above my 16gb sd card. So I removed the SD card and replaced it with an 8gb one. Now it is a normal temp. It worked for me so maybe you, try removing/replacing SD card.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] b@tt@l:
Looks like there are many users complaining about this, so it's probably normal if it doesn't reach abnormal levels. Many other phones have this problem, too.

hello

i'm a newbie to android, and got an i9003

i tried to solve the gps lock issue, following various hints described in the forum, with no luck

finally, i followed the guideline for flashing the rom from the following topic:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1190163

and now, there are no problems

i rooted the phone, using superoneclick, restored my programs from froyo with titanium

i installed cvm from this topic http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=16169086&postcount=590

and i tried to deodex, more than one time so to say, but whenever i use root explorer to view system/apps afterwards, i still see the .odex files.

in the cvm, i use the following method:

"install zip from sdcard" --> "choose zip from sdcard" --> Search " Deodx_XKPE.zip" --> " - Yes - Install Deodx_XKPE.zip" --> Reboot system now

What am i doing wrong?

Thanks for the help in advance.

[Xperia Arc General] abnoob:
http://www.techofweb.com/technology/root-android-gingerbread-gingerbreak.html

There are some tutorials about how to root in this forum, but they need to downgrade to 2.3.2.

I found a blog, which teachs how to root Arc 2.3.3 with just an APK.

You can try if you need it.
[Xperia Arc General] kistigun:
gingerbreak doesn't work on the Arc running 2.3.3
[Xperia Arc General] abnoob:
I see, how to remove the thread? I don't want to waste other's time
[Xperia Arc General] xtacy!:
They require us to downgrade to 2.3.2 and then use Gingerbreak i.e. the apk and then update OTA to get a rooted 2.3.3 (Locked bootloaders ONLY).

This is because SE patched the exploit used by Gingerbreak in their 2.3.3 ROM.

Hope this clears things up for you. :) Cheers!
[Xperia Arc General] xtacy!:
It's fine. I'm sure the mods will either lock or delete this thread sometime. Don't worry about it.
[Xperia Arc General] cryogenix:
i read the post. author wasn't even sure if it's working and is asking the readers to confirm his post. LOL...

like what kistigun said, gingerbreak doesnt work on 2.3.3. so flashing to a 2.3.2 rom was necessary for it to be able to run the rooting exploit.

[Galaxy S II General] BarryH_GEG:
Did it do it before you started loading apps on the phone? It could be an app conflict. You might want to try a hard reset and see if it still happens before you begin loading apps. You're going to have to start over anyway if you exchange it.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] glodos:
Hello, maybe here someone will help me:)

I'm writing a file manager app and I want to allow it for browsing with root permissions.

All I have so far is creation of a Process object using Runtime.exec("su"). Then I get output stream from it and write "ls" command. And here goes the question. How to read the output of the "ls"? Getting the input stream from the process gives me stdout of the "su" which is useless.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gene Poole:
Use the -c option of su:

su -c 'ls -l /system/'
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] glodos:
I think I'm closer, but still it doesn't work:)

I have this:

p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("/system/bin/su -c 'ls -d -1 "+directory.getAbsolutePath()+"/*'");

So the command for a directory /data will be:

/system/bin/su -c 'ls -d -1 /data/*'

But it gives me:

W/su (13979): request rejected (0->0 'ls)

I have tried putting the command's parts into array but then system asks for su permission on every command. For ex. ls /data needs permission and ls /system needs another permission beacuse the command is different.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gene Poole:
Not much I can think of to do about that. I had a similar issue once upon a time and I dealt with it by using a script that read its commands from a data file. I'd write the datafile to my program's designated directory (no special permissions required), then run a single command with su and that script would read the datafile to know what to do, otherwise, I had a ****load of su requests bothering the user.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] glodos:
You've got a point there, but making it work with a file manager, where the commands are related to user interaction would be very difficult. Anyway I will put it into my consideration.

I wonder how all these root explorers are made but none of the developers, which I asked so far, were so kind to give me some tips:(
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gene Poole:
Well, I suppose you could keep a process open to a shell with root permissions and once open, keep input and output pipes routed to it and send and receive commands as needed.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] glodos:
Well, that's what I've tried to do, but as I mentioned in the first post, output pipe gives me stdout of the su process which doesn't write any output (but "ls" does).
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gene Poole:
No, I don't think you're following me. Just run su -c 'sh' and it should run a shell and keep it open. From there, you create an input stream, output stream and possibly an error stream, then write commands like "ls -l /system\n" (the \n triggers the shell to execute it) to the output stream, then read the results form the input stream. You keep doing this as needed and when you're done just send "exit\n".
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] glodos:
Oh, I understand now. I'll try it ASAP.

Edit:

It works now, but I have problems with stopping the loop. Here is my piece of code:

String[] cmd = new String[]{"su", "-c", "/system/bin/sh"};
console = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(cmd);
BufferedWriter stdin = new BufferedWriter(new OutputStreamWriter(console.getOutputStream()));
stdin.write("ls -d -1 "+directory.getAbsolutePath()+"/*\n");
BufferedReader stdout = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(console.getInputStream()));
String read;
data1 = new String();
while((read=stdout.readLine())!=null){
data1+=read + "\n";
}

The problem is, that it hangs at some point on invocation of "stdout.readLine()". I have read that it waits for some data to come and it will never be null.

Furthermore if my ls command returns nothing (which can happen) it always hangs forever on readLine().

Anyway I'll try to do something with this. Maybe there is a workaround and reading will not block.

Thank you for your effort, it was really helpful.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chefp:
Sorry to ressurect such an old thread. I'd been having the same problem with reads blocking using BufferedReader, InputStream and other variants. Turns out BufferedReader has a ready() method which indicates whether a read() will block. This code works for me:

String outputStr;
BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(suProcess.getInputStream()));
while (reader.ready()) {
outputStr += reader.readLine();
}

Hope it helps someone from the repeating the same frustrations. Heck I hope it helps me in the future in case I forget this :)

First: I tried to search but was unsuccessful. So my apologies if I didn't look hard enough.

When I want to screen capture a message, I hold down the back button and hit home, correct? Well as soon as I hold down the back button, it just goes back to the list of messages I have. I don't even lift my finger yet. Is there another way to screen cap?
